Step 5 — Connect to WebLink (
C5KC
)
When you double-click the WebLink desktop shortcut or enter the reader’s IP address directly in the
address bar of your web browser, WebLink will load and start.
Note:
WebLink is the preferred user interface
for
wenglor
Readers, but
wenglor
’s
ESP
Software
can also be used for configuration and
testing. Use ESP in the following circumstances:
• Device discovery to find the reader IP address;
• If you only have an RS-232 (serial) connection;
• Updating
Scanner
firmware;
• Using the Configuration Database;
• Creating barcodes for reader configuration;
• Generating Symbol Quality reports.
Type
http://192.168.100.1
(the default IP address) in the
web browser’s address bar.
The WebLink session will
begin shortly after you enter
the reader’s IP address

Step 5
Steps 6 – 8
Step 7 — Explore the Start View
The
Start View
is the initial view you will see when the session begins. The connected reader is shown,
along with its
user-defined name
,
IP address
,
Reader Model
,
Serial Number
,
MAC ID
,
Firmware
Version
,
Sensor
,
Optics
,
Decoder
, and
Speed
. This view allows you to choose
Assisted Setup
, to
Create a New Setup
, or to
Load a Setup
.
Refer to
WebLink Help
for information about
Advanced Settings
and
Terminal
functionality.

Step 8 — Create a New Setup or Load an Existing Setup
Assisted Setup
When you click the
Assisted Setup
button in the Start View, a dialog will appear asking you a series of
application-based questions. Based on your answers, WebLink generates your initial setup automatically.
Once the setup is created, you can fine-tune its parameters in the
Setup View
.
New Setup
The Start View also allows you to create a
New Setup
without using Assisted Setup. When you click the
New Setup button, WebLink searches for any differences from default in the reader parameters. If no
differences from default are found, you will see the
Setup View
. If differences from default are found, an
alert will appear asking if you want to restore the reader to factory defaults.
Load Setup
Select
Load Setup
to
load an existing
.json
WebLink setup file.
Step 3 — Mount and Position the Reader
• Position the reader several inches from the symbol. You may need to reposition the reader a few
times to find the ideal distance.
• Tip the reader relative to the symbol to avoid the glare of direct (specular) reflection.
• Symbols can be rotated (tilted) at any angle; however, for best results symbols should be aligned
with the field of view. In the case of linear symbols, aligning the bars in the direction of their movement
(ladder orientation) will minimize the chances of blurring and will result in more consistent decodes.
Important:
Avoid excessive skew or pitch. Maximum skew is
±30°
; maximum pitch is
±30°
. The
illustration below shows approximate skew axis, pitch axis, and tilt axis.
